Message: <blockquote data-quote="gogittum" data-source="post: 489711" data-attributes="member: 27114">Mrgiggles:  as has been said, seems like all instructions say to mount transducer to the right of the prop.  What benefit have you seen by going way to the left ??  I like to get as far from the prop as I can, but realize the strakes cause turbulence, too.  How far to stay away from the strakes ??My problem is spray.  I have the big 3 in 1 transducer for my Lowrance and I mounted it on a block about 3" inboard of the st'b'd strake, angled very slightly down and the leading edge of it about ½" below the bottom.When running at speed, it throws a huge, ragged roostertail of spray that comes up over the transom and floods the back of the boat.  I had to make a cover of scrap plastic sheet to deflect it, but it doesn't seem right.</blockquote>
